Click HERE to Register for the Regular Fall Season
Any REC/REC PLUS and JUNIORS registrations made after the June 15th deadline will only be considered if there is space available. In addition, there may be a possibility that the player will be placed on a team with players who attend a different school.
The COMPETITIVE program requires a tryout. Simply registering for the Competitive program does not guarantee a position on a team. Players do not need to register for the Competitive program to tryout, however, in order to take advantage of the early bird discounted registration fees, competitive players may register before tryouts and before teams are formed.
If you are a Rec/Rec Plus player trying out for competitive, please register for Rec or Rec Plus in the event that you do not make a competitive team, and you are already placed on a Rec/Rec Plus team. If you register for Competitive and do not make a competitive team, you are responsible for contacting the club registrar and informing them which program you would like to be moved to (Rec, Rec Plus, Juniors).
